But you can't see metadata from popular encrypted messaging apps just by spying on internet traffic. These apps encrypt communication to the server, so only the service itself can see who messages are sent to. So most likely, a messaging app complied with a court order — PolitiTweet.org

Pen register and trap and trace orders allow the government to collect metadata from a phone, but doesn't define exactly how they get the metadata. It could be spying on the phone's internet, eavesdropping with a stingray, or ordering the service provider to hand it over — PolitiTweet.org

Signal has confirmed they did not provide the metadata. All of the government requests they've ever responded to are listed here https://t.co/TvBrsOs6zS (it's just one, and Signal provided basically no information) https://t.co/AuNMCjZ49a — PolitiTweet.org
